For some reason even though I lack any real romance i like watching romantic films. Maybe it is escapism into a world that will never happen to me:( Or maybe it's because they are delightful:)

1. Amelie

2. Secretary

3. In the mood for love

4. Harold and maude

5. Bright star

6. Let the right one in

7. All or nothing

8. Before sunset

9. Before sunrise

10. Lars and the real girl

11. High fidelity

12. It's a wonderful life

13. When Harry met sally

14. Tess

15. Breakfast on pluto

Just watched these two for the first time about two weeks ago. I still can't stop thinking about them. Both of them really struck a cord with me. I just adore them.

Also...I didn't even know Before Sunrise/Sunset existed until a few weeks ago & everyone in FAU has been going bat**** crazy about themJML897

Love & Basketball. And actually, now that I think about it I gotta say The Proposal was also a great movie IMO.

Amelie, its such a charming film. :oops:

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless MindJML897

Trust me they are both great.

The Princess Bride

Casablanca

It Happened One Night

The Tiger and the Snow

Out of Africa

Leaving Las Vegas (A VERY non-traditional romantic movie, but one nonetheless.)

An Affair to Remember

The Bishop's Wife (the Cary Grant version)

Singin' in the Rain

An American in Paris

Gigi (best scene in the movie: "I Remember It Well" performed by Maurice Chevalier and Hermione Gingold)

A Room with a View

Working Girl

Charade

A Walk to Remember is one of my favourite movies.

The Fly. You had to have known I'd mention it.

Almost Famous also works really great as a romantic comedy. Love the hell out of that movie.

I also view The Talented Mr Ripley as a romantic movie. It's just that the "romance" here isn't just confined to people but also to lifestyles. and Tom Ripley continually murders the people who he loves in order to maintain his romantic lifestyle.

Almost famous is a fantastic film. I have always liked Cameron crowe. His films remind me of John Hughes. Though I wasnt a fan of his last film Elizabethtown. Say Anything is still a favorite of mine. I love 80's romance films. Especially ones with John Cusack:D I actually got the Blu ray edition of The Fly recently.

Forrest Gump, Wall-E, Slumdog Millionaire, Twilight Samurai, and Brokeback Mountain.

Norbit. It was a romance movie in a weird twisted way...

The 40 year old virgin was sort of a romance film, wasn't it? If not , then I dont have a favorite romance film.Dr_Ganondorf

Anything with Ryan Reynolds. I tend to like romance movies when there is a charismatic lead and it's not bogged down with false head in the clouds love. That might seem contradictory, but there's a difference between impossible and implausible.

[QUOTE="JML897"]Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mindcd_rom

I'm gonna go with Eternal Sunshine... that's perhaps my #1 favorite movie. I was about halfway through Before Sunrise a while ago but I got caught up with something. :( I'll have to finish it later.

I have a soft spot for Love Me If You Dare.

• F------ Amal (aka Show Me Love)

Bah, there are so many great romance movies out there; can't possibly list them all :P Above are a select few of my favs.

Love Actually, Eternal Sunshine, and About a Boy, if it counts. And TC, wow, Secretary? Really? I found that one a little too...deviant for my tastes I guess.

You've Got Mail

Sleepless In Seattle

Addicted To Love

French Kiss

Probably there's more

(500) days of Summer since i'm crushing on Zooey Deschanel.

IS that Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist a good movie too?

Nick and norah was pretty mediocre. Plus it has Michael Cera so that makes it worse.
